I wouldnt spend 10K on a PC, You are paying for the name ALienware and not the hardware. 4Gb of RAM? OVERKILL. I have 1 Gig and mine runs fine. You dont need dual video cards, pointless, 1 256 is sufficent. Build your own and save 8-9K.
Actualy i did build it myself. Alienware would cost me close to 20k. I look into that already. And i need all that stuff, cause of the things i do on my pc. The current one is soo slow with only a gig of ram. Dual vid cards cause i liek good graphics Jesse
thats crazy man...u will be set for a long time with that comp...i plan on building one but it wouldnt be near that much prob around 4-5K...
I think you should skip that mouse and go for the Logitech mx 518, cause from ppl who have the laser mouse i heard that it laggs like hell when you lift it up, and that it even has some lag when ur just playing with it, but thats just what i heard...
I heard it was the best mouse around..The peeps at teh comps store said its the only mouse they will use. Im not lying BTW, ill post a pic when i get it Jesse
The video card is overkill. 512mb of VRAM on that 6800 is not necessary at all. Probably would slow the card down slightly seeing that there would be so much open space that it would take longer to search through. I'm jealous though
With 2 good ones he is set for the next generation of graphics that will be > Doom 3 and such, good enough to last like 10 years. prob.
